Are you telling me you think the reasons Republicans do not address gun control legislation have nothing to do with NRA contributions to their campaign coffers?

The NRA contributes about $1M a year in campaign contributions. Just as an exercise, divvy that up to roughly 50 Republican senators and 200 Republican congressmen (a few Dems get some too). That's $4,000 per person on average. Whoop-de-do. You think a candidate is going to change his position for a measly 1% or less of his total? It's much more likely that the NRA donated based on an already established position.

Just looked up a senator picked at random, Dean Heller of Nevada (based on it being a contested race). The NRA gave his campaign $2500. That's typical of his 766 donors, nothing special.

Dean Heller Campaign Finances

Look at NRA contributions to politicians over the course of their political careers. 8 have received as much as $1,000,000. You don't need them all in your pocket. Also look at how the NRA influences other donors.

If something can corrupt you, you're corrupted already.
